Learn something new all the time

I am the first to admit that I do not know everything about being a mom. I learn just like everyone else. With this in mind, I learned something this morning that was a big help and wanted to share.

My youngest has had a severe diaper rash the last couple of days due to the 1st year molar coming in. I don't understand how a tooth coming in causes diarrhea but it does.

After using Desitin that last couple days, my mom suggested letting him sleep without a diaper last night. With that in mind, I did not want to get Desitin spread all over the towel he would sleep on; I was afraid he would get this in his mouth since he moves around in his sleep. So I put Aveeno lotion on his behind last night before putting his diaper on while he played before bedtime.

Of course, we forgot to take the diaper off last night.

But this morning when we changed him, the diaper rash was drastically reduced! I was amazed that it worked better than the Desitin.

It is great to learn something new.
